O The Schhhtyle The Schhhtyle...

Well now folks, if you wanted to see all the finest fashion and all the latest schhhtyle you shudda been in Dublin last Friday night for the VIP Style Awards 2012 at The Shelbourne Hotel. More guna nuas and bleached white teeth than you could shake a schhhtylish stick at...

Sinead Desmond

This year's VIP Style Awards were more notable for those who didn't turn up than those who did... No Katie Price, no Claudine Palmer, no Georgia Salpa, no Ahern sisters... Still. At least Sinead Desmond turned up looking like the fairy off the Christmas tree. Nice.

Glenda Gilson, Claire O'Loughlin

This year VIP winners included Sharon Corr, Marty Whelan, Alan Hughes & Karl Broderick, and Aoibhin Garrihy... Yup. All the names that immediately come to mind when we think of style. Synonymous is the word we would use, if we knew what it meant.

Aoibhin Garrihy

On the night oooh sooo many ladies got it wrong but for our money model Karena Graham stood out as the stunner on the red carpet, as did Rosanna Davison & Sarah Morrissey with their backless numbers. Cici Cavanagh also stood out, but in a good way folks? Hmmmm...

Karena Graham

Couple of the night had to be Cian Healy & Holly Carpenter. They're calling them Colly, apparently. They're growing on us... Lastly, special mention for Aisling O'Loughlin's dress - we're thinking Peter Pan or Robin Hood inspired.

Jean Byrne

So there you have it folks, the VIP Style Awards 2012... Only 12 more months until proper schhhtyle returns to Dublin. Until then, all we have is Jean Byrne's garbs on the weather forecast to keep us going.
